...Dartmouth has a very sensible editorial about the action of Yale and Harvard. It pronounces Harvard "manly" for "withdrawing at a time when she will receive countless flings on account of never having won a race." It is somewhat annoyed at Captain Cook's alleged statement that Yale has a rivalry with Harvard alone, and consoles itself with the reflection that, whatever the Captain may think, the "majority" consider Dartmouth, etc., very formidable rivals. It admits that "colleges with an abundance of men and an abundance of money must dislike having to give up cherished plans for the sake...

...informs us that they are our friends still, and then rather illogically requests us to "cheer up"! According to the Courant's table, in this fall's athletics, Yale made the best time in four "events," Williams and Pennsylvania University in three, Harvard in two, Tufts in one, while Dartmouth, Wesleyan, Union, Cornell, and Bowdoin were in nothing pre-eminent. We would ask the Courant whether Yale's 252 Freshmen are in the Academic Department alone, or include those in the Scientific School? In the former case, "we accept their apology...
